A Media Server from Google

,----[ Quote ]
| A surprising Google Desktop gadget released by Google enables you to share 
| your media across devices. 
| 
| [...]
| 
| Google Desktop's blog mentions PlayStation 3 as an example of UPnP-enabled 
| device. Google Media Server's team says that "the only way to connect the 
| XBox 360 to a UPnP server, was to have a service that is only found on 
| Microsoft services (used for registering for DRM content) and for the server 
| itself to be claimed to be made by Microsoft. Legal would not allow us to 
| pretend to be Microsoft (although there are other servers out there that 
| do)."

Google goes back to the future with the PlayStation 3

,----[ Quote ]
| David Garcia, a Google Software Engineer, writes in the official Google 
| Desktop blog that this is a "Windows application that aims to bridge the gap 
| between Google and your TV. It uses Google Desktop technology such as Desktop 
| gadgets for the administration tool and Google Desktop Search to locate media 
| files."    
| 
| "All you need" Garcia continues "is a PC running Google Desktop and a 
| UPnP-enabled device."

At the end, it's Microsoft's loss.
